I'm sorry if I misunderstood you, but if you talked about download statistics then that was far from obvious. I got the impression that you talked about the same thing as "yersinia", and "yersinia" talked about Popcon. So what would it mean for download statistics to be on or off by default? How would a user override the default? Would there be an option in Yum that would let the user choose whether their downloads should be counted? Would that choice be communicated in every HTTP or FTP request? Björn Persson
